Having just hit a milestone birthday, I’m so open and ready for this new season of life and love the growth and self-realization of this stage, knowing growing older is a gift. What I’m not so enthusiastic about? Noticeable changes to my skin (apparently 11 years of sleep deprivation isn’t so good for the dermis;), and since I’ve been asked a lot lately what advice
It’s hard to believe March is almost over…MADNESS! We’re prepping for our family vacay and have been busy with Hockey wind-downs – the boys going straight from the rink-life to BBall courts! Our big guy just made the school Basketball team (#proudparents), and to celebrate, we’re gifting one of you a 3-pack of tickets to see The Harlem Globetrotters World Tour in Toronto on April

I guess that’s what happens with the Mom RAM is overloaded and I have too many projects on the go…like our Office re-do we’ve been SLOWLY putting together and closet warbrobe overhaul. We’ve got
March 8th is International Women’s Day, and this year’s campaign encourages us to #BalanceForBetter, and think about how to forge a more gender-balanced world.

We were happy to say ‘Buh bye’ to the longest month of the year, and “Hello” to February (aka The Month of LOVE). For us, February means lots of family connection while riding out the last bits of Winter (vision-boarding, Winter hikes & activities, board games, and this year, a road-trip to Quebec for Family Day weekend!), a low-key Valentine’s Day fam jam at home,

How to Get the Best Value from your Travel Bookings Like so many of you, travel with our kids and soaking in the enriching experiences that come from it is #biggoals and vision board official for our brood. But, let’s face it, travel is pricey, and one of the best ways for us not to feel the bank account burn is stretching our dollars and
It’s that point in Winter where we all may be fantasizing about an escape to somewhere warm & sun-shiny (after an Enviro Canada cold weather alert weekend for us East-Coasters, maybe even more so!). Spontaneous, last minute travel is said to be more popular than ever & an increasing trend for 2019 by travel experts, and you all know by our SUPER last minute booking
After a few weeks of indulging to the max (it was the holidays…we celebrated, and that entails ZERO guilt or punishment), it felt good to get back to healthy eating this weekend.
